TROTZKY MAKES
PLEA FOR STRONG
ARMY IN RUSSIA
Declares Nation Will Lose In
dependence Unless It Prepares
.. to Resist Foreign Imperial
istic Pretensions.
By Associated Press.
. Moscow, July 7g-The official bul
letin of the bolshevik war commis
' sariat, headed by Leon Trotzky,
' prints an editorial today outlining
Russia's critical position and declar
ing that Russia must inevitably dis
appear as an independent nation and
become a mere theater of international
var if she fails to organize immed
iately an effective army to resist all
foreign imperialistic pretensions.
"If we succeed in organizing such
an army," the editorial says, "Russia
will be an independent country, an
advanced socialistic republic capable
of coducting peaceful and creative
work, and capable of restoring her
economic basis which has been de
stroyed by the war.",
Bolshevik Garrison Disarmed.
London, July 7. A dispatch from
Vladivostok to Reuter's, limited, says
that the commandant of the Czecho-
Slovaks there sent an ultimatum to
the local bolsheviki. The commandant
declared that, as the bolsheviki, were
opposing the passage of Czecho-Slo-vaks'from
western Siberia to Vladi
vostok and the local bolsheviki were
showing signs of acting in an antag
onistic manner toward Czecho-Slo-vaks,
he cosidered it his duty to take
such steps as lax in his power to as
; sist his fellow countrymen and as a
preliminary measure he had decided
to disarm the local Bolsheviki. .
The commandant allowed a half
hour for a reply ajid on receiving no
, answer the disarmament proceeded
forthwith and was carried out virtual
ly, without resistance. Six hundred
- sailors gave up their arms and the
.'V other bolsheviki elements dispersed
or surrendered. ,
Intervention Opposed.
" Paris, July 7. The protest voted at
a secret meeting of the Russian con
stituent assembly on May 18, 1918,
read by ex-Premier Kerensky at a
meeting of the socialist party in the
chamber of deputies, after 'emphasiz
ing the desperate situation in Russia,
' owing to the continued invasion of
the Germans and reports regarding
a Japanese descent in the far east,
says:
"Russia will never accept" the viola
x tion of her national sovereignty by
the allies. She will not consent to the
occupation of her territories or in
- tervention in her internal affairs. ;
"The appearance of allied troops
, on Russian territory can only be ac-
pted for strategic reasons connected
with the struggle against Germany."

Nearly All U. S. Soldiers
Take Government Insurance
Washington, July 7. The following
cablegram from General Pershing to
Secretary McAdoo was made public
by the secretary: -
"All ranksof the American expedi
tionary forces appreciate deeply the
generous measure the government has
taken to provide insurance for their
families, in proof of which more than
90 per cent of the men have taken
out insurance. To wisely provision
for their loved ones heartens our men
and strengthens the bonds that unite
the army and people in our strong
determination to triumph in our
most righteous cause." ,
A record-breaking rush of applica
tions which brought in more , than
one billion dollars of insurance will
probably increase the. percentage of
.American soldiers insured tfj 95.

HOLIDAYS FOR
CONGRESS TO BE

V
Struggle Over Prohibition
Looms in Senate; Final Action
on Wheat Price Expected
This Week.
Washington, July 7. With mid
summer recess plans blocked by the
house, congress will start tomorrow
to clean up its slate so as to get oc
casional respites. Hearings are
planned to begin probably a week
from tomorrow onthe resolution giv
ing the president authority to take
over the wire and radio systems.
Although prohibition during the
war has the right of. way in the sen
ate, comparatively slim attendance is
expected. Many members have left
for their homes.
Wartime prohibition promises to
bring on, a spectacular struggle in the
senate. An early vote is not in pros
pect. Because of absence of many
enators the "drys" plan to postpone
a roll call until a full membership is
present.
Final action ,on the wheat price
controversy also is expected this
week. With informal notice already
given that President Wilson will veto
the compromise to increase the gov
ernment guarantee to $2.40 per bushel,
advocates of the increase plan an ef
fort to override the prospective veto.
AMERICANS LEAP .
INTO BATTLE AFTER
LONG, Hp MARCH
(t'Antlnued Vrmn Page One)
m "Then came the barrage and we
never dreamed there could be such
gun fire. It was tremcndQU- The
gunners certaintly did a wonderful
job.
The infantry sarted to advance.
My men were headed for Vamel vil
lage and our first trouble was encoun
tered in a broad belt of barbed wire
in front of the boche forward line of
defenses. The tanks had opened the
way through most of this, but in spots
some of our men were held up for a
little.
I saw a funnv thing here. One of
my coroorals, who had been a guard
officer in a penitentiary and has a
reputation for being a hard customer
in a fight got hung up in the wire.
As he had1 no cutters he sat clown ana
started pullingv the stuff out of his
legs, barb by barb. A boche got a
machine gun on him and was making
thincs hot. but the corporsl kept on
pulling the wire, meantmie roaring
curses at Jhe Huns.
"'Frame a trick like this on a white
man, will you? Let me out of here
and I'll show you.'
"Ho got out and what he did to the
boche was a-plcnty. ' , .
f Clean Up Dugouts. ,
"When we reached ' Hamel we
found a lot, of dugouts filled with
boches and their snipers up trees with
machine guns.v We cleaned them -all
out systematically.
"In the center of Hamel we cap
tured a company headquarters. A
dare-devil Australian officer climbed
to the top of a building and raised a
big French flag fom the flagstaff,
under a heavy shtll fire-
"Just in front of Vaire wood one
of our boys, whom we called "Scotty,"
came to a dugout fillcd'with Boches,
who had been left behind the AmerV
ican advance. He naturally thought
some of our men were there, and went
dewn. It was dark, so he called V
his supposed pals. The answer was
a crack on the head.
"He knew then they were not
Yanks, and opened fire with his rifle
in the blackness. Finally a Boche
began to yell 'kamerad.' When the
fight was over, it was found that he
had killed five Germans and he took
nine prisoners." , , . , .

Washington, July . 7. Indefinite
postponement of the strike of teleg
raphers employed by the Western
Union Telegraph company, called to

back.' They are holding the line be
fore the back door to Berlin.
.-""Our American boys are true boys."
First Air Raid.
Mr. Bailey then described the first
air raid that he had been through.
"Since then I have not cared much
for them," remarked the speaker.
The recital of the pitiable condi
tion of the French refugees drew tears
to many eyes, but the audience broke
into applause when it was told of the
cry "Rely on Us" with which the
French soldiers responded to the hail
"Vive la France" of the old men
pushing carts and baby carriages be
fore them. v
"Oh those marines of ours," ex
claimed Mr. Bailey when he told of
how the marines went into battle
when the Huns had swept over the
French lines. "When they came up,
geedbye Hun."
"The boys have plenty to eat. They
have beef, and jam sandwiches
aplenty. The 'Y' has an entertain
ment for them practically every night
and the boys are at them and not in
the towns."
Touching Tableau.
The recital of the touching tableau
acted by the women canteen workers
on Mother's Day brought the tears
fro mmany eyes. "Keep the Home
Fires Burning" was the theme of the
tableau which ended with "When the
Boys Come Home." A soldier who
had not written to his mother for 20
years was so stirred by the perform
ance that he wrote home at once.
The exercise of kultur by the Huns
was shown by an incident recited by
Mr. Bailey of the shooting of two bal
loon observers who were descending
in parachutes after their balloon had
been set afire. Another incidentsof
Hun barbarism was the slaying of all
but seven of the 700 women refu
gees on a traih whose engineer was
killed by an aerial bullet.
The hundreds of persons who filled
the Church listened intensely as

scribed. Mr. Bailey, assisted by an
other "Y" secretary carried the
wounded on stretchers while the rain
of bullets mowed down all but 27 of
a conyjriny of 227 meri, he said.
"If these eyes of "mine have' seen
anything worse, I don't know what k4
is, he declared.
The humanity of an Omaha captain
in assisting the hundreds of women
refugees drew applause. An incident
of the rescue of a babe from a build
ing which was being shelled and its
teturn to its crazed mother was told.
The sergeant, an Omahan. on return
ing to the building for the doll for
which the infant was crying was shot
in the arm.
When Mr. Bailey asked the brave
man, who gave his right arm to help
the suffering, "Why did you do it?"
he replied, "I have a wife." .
"There is just one great diselse
lonesofneness," declared the speaker
before appealing to each business man
to gt a soldier's name and to write to
him often. "Write, write often," he
urged everyone.
Mr. Bailey returned Thursday from
Trance. He is the son of J. P. Bailey
state "Y" secretary. He will speak at
Fort Omaha tonight.

Bill Passed Giving President
Complete Control of Shipping
7. An adminis-
tration bill designed to Confer on tne
president-complete powers to control
shipping for war purposes was
passed after slight amendment by
the senate. It now goes to confer
ence, having passed the house.
CONDUCTOR OF THE
OVERLAND LIMiTED
MAKES STATEMENT
Capt. Blakely Says He "Feels
Fine" Since Taking ..'
Tanlac.
dX. Arthur Blakely, conductor
Oil
the Overland Limited and living at
the Sanford Hotel, Omaha, is now an
ardent champion of Tanlac. Captain
Blakely has been conductor tor ion-
three years and is well known in
Wyoming anti Colorado as well as in
Nebraska. Captain Blakely, wiio is
only one of many hundreds .of
prominent railroad men throughout
the United States who have given
their unqualified endorsements of the
Master Medicine, said recently:
"I have tried Tanlac myself now
and have found it to be extra fine. I
had been suffering for several months
from loss of appetite and nervousness
and had gotten in a badly run-down
condition. I could not sleep, lost
some in weight and while I was not
laid up at any time I was not at myself
by any means and frt little like doing
my work.
"What I needed was an air around
building up and Tanlac has done that
very thing. I decided from the high
endorsements of Tanlac to give it a
test and while I have taken only two
bottles so far I have already gained
five pounds. My Appetite is splendid
now, I eat anything I want, sleen
like a log and get up in the morning
feeling fine. It certainly has fixed me
up O. K. and I have told a numb-r ot
people about it."
There are-thousands of people who
complain of feeling nervous ami run
down. They are not sick exactly, but
feel tiredout and go'od for nothing
most of the time. They need some
thing to build them up and throw
off the symptoms of this weakened,
debilitated condition.
The system, besides being purified
by Tanlac, is toned up and invigor
ated as the medicine, aside from as
sisting the blood, reinvigorates the
constitution, overcoming as it seems
to quickly do, nervousness, indiges
tion, non-assimilatioi of the food
headache, backache, kidney derange-'
nients, - general debility and many
other complaints that ajre sq common
to the thousands of half-sick de
pressed men and women. '
